It's a good idea to clear the area directly beneath Kinelroy (60,55) before you begin the escort quest, as two orcs will ambush her there.

Comment by bradata

I don't think you can die at this quest.Mean it's not possible when Kinelory heal you/her self,cast Bear form and he make somewhere like 80-90 damage.Quest is realy easy solo and will be much easy to kill the orks with her.

Comment by Fayden

I believe I was incredibly unlucky but Forsaken Courrier and the four bodyguards spawned exactly at the same time I entered the room. Beware !

Comment by absorb

same here, after killing apoc , hello forsaken courrier, as i took them all down, horde rogue came upvery happy about this coincidence

Comment by paniczero

As a rogue an easy thing to do is follow the group and then sap a body guard in the back. Wait for the group to move on, then take out that body guard. Move up and repeat until down to the last body guard. Sap that one and take out the Courier and the last guard.

Very easy Solo.

What to do if you fail:

Go to your questlog and abandon the quest. Quae will reappear where she was standing before and you can redo the quest!

Comment by RogueJedi86

I echo the remarks on this being easy. She's a Druid, and casts the appropriate level Druid Heal Over Time on you when you get hurt( Rejuvenation, around 304 damage over 12 seconds), and takes most of the aggro when things fight her, plus she's very tough, and most likely won't die. Very nice for an escort quest. If only all other escort quests were like this, with your escortee being so hard to die, and actually giving heals to YOU, instead of the reverse.

Comment by imaginger

ez quest but wen i was almost done she dissappeared...wtf?!?!?!?!?

Comment by rivvenx

Ok, so I think this quest is now bugged.Besides the fact that she vanished on me once, the forsaken bodyguards now respawn as soon as they're killed, so unless you are a much higher level and can kill them really fast, you won't be able to even get into the house.

Comment by Phyranice

So this quest failed for me and Kinelory wont respawn back by Quae. Yes I abandond quest, this quest is definately bugged.

Comment by Surprincess

Well, the quest started well and we were killing all the orchs without pain, peace of cake. Then the forsaken courrier spawned exactly at the same time. We got them all down (good!) but the courrier and her guards spawned AGAIN (bad!) and that made it. They really spawn right after you have killed them so if you see them spawning just give up and abandon the quest without trying if you're not a high lvl.

Comment by Zaxmon

This quest is still buggy in 2.3. I was disapointed.

Comment by castorjay

i did the part before this and then immediately ran up and started this part. everything was going just find until we get to the house with the courier and the bodyguards outside. we manage to take down all the body guards and courier and immediately they respawned again. by this time i was half health half mana (41 mage). we took down the body guards and guess what...they respawn AGAIN! i just turned tail and ran. ill take the above advice and do something else then come back to this.

Comment by vincenc

As of 2.3.2 this quest seems to be working again.

Comment by Euryticles

Did it with a 32 Warlock. Used the Void to tank, I probably shouldn't have since she can tank pretty good, but who knows she might have died. The void died half way through, and you can't heal/restore mana/summon since she moves as soon as you kill one. The most I got on me was 4, hardly made it, but she heals well.

Comment by Evaiyne

I found this very easy to complete on my 36 Shadow Priest. Kinelory is an awesome druid, changing to bear form and casting her HOTs when injured. She never casted on me, and I was taking quite a bit of hate. Luckily, she barely takes a scratch, as I died and came all the way back while she was still fighting orcs at full health!

This was the smoothest escort quest I've ever done. Only problem besides dying was the named mob that spawned inside the house (I wanna say like, 'Apothecary Julen' or something along those lines)... but he went down fast. :)

Comment by SoulReader

Did it by 32 holy priest, mostly heald myself, she did the last. The only problem was that i aggroed mobs much further than she did, so once i had to stand being attacked by 2 ogres 35 while she was killing another couple, but we did it)

Comment by Kyoni

Best Escort Quest Ever. Kinelory has an awesome AI as she heals you, herself and tanks in bear form. She's a HealBear!

Unfortunately, either it was bugged for me or this quest has become very hard, the Courier and her bodyguards now have an insanely short respawn timer and don't patrol anymore, they respawn immediately after you kill them making it very hard to complete.

Kinelory also had a fairly long respawn timer of 5-10 minutes.

Comment by danmaftei

THE BODYGUARDS AND COURIER RESPAWN TOO FAST TO COMPLETE THE QUEST

getting to the house is not hard, but once there, the respawn rate for the undead was about 60 seconds, no joke. i cant even count the number of waves i fought through hoping to complete the quest... i spent about 20 minutes inside that house before abandoning the damn thing.

even if you manage to kill all four bodyguards and the courier before any of them respawn, with how slow your escort walks youll inevtiably have to fight a new wave.

Comment by Delphis

This is impossible to solo now, with the really fast spawn time. Might be possibible with another persons assistance.

Comment by corino

stupid fast respawn, as a 35 2hfury we managed to get in and out all the while killing the repopping curiour..i musta killed it like 15times...dont do this quest

Comment by sageman

Good thing I did this with a hunter; not only did we run into the courier, but they also spawned close by afterwards, lol ~_~

Comment by kimsey0

I just did the quest withour problems as in 2.4.1She didn't dissappear, but she kicked ass.I could leave her alone and she would complete the quest herself.

Comment by Nahimana

I just tried this quest with my 35 draenei shaman, and after the first mob she disappeared. Still seems to be buggy.

Comment by Niali

Horde PCs can kill Kinelory at will, as of Patch 2.4. A 14-year-old in his parents' basement with nothing better to do than grief your quest can render it impossible simply by directly attacking Kinelory every time you start the quest. It's a high-30s quest, so it only takes about a level 45 Horde character of any class.

Comment by Safiyah

I don't see why people are finding this hard...Killed the courier just as she spawned outside the house (for the last part of the q), by stealthing in catform, killing her, running off till adds left combat, looting body and going back to questgiver. As I left, I saw the courier spawn again.

If people are finding her spawn a problem, why don't you wait until she's spawned and left before accepting the q? I managed this perfectly fine as a 39 druid, and she never got below 2/3 health. As with all escort q's, follow but don't aggro. Let her aggro what she will, which isn't much in her case :)

Very simple q.

Comment by anerak

While fighting the undead guy, had 1 orc add then Kinelory poofed. No fail message, no text saying she was running out, nothing. I had her focused and just suddenly vanished.

She eventually respawned, no ! mark. Quae still had grey ? mark.

Very annoying.

Comment by Enigma107

I took the advice of all those who previously posted and finished the quest just fine. She didnt vanish or the bodygaurds didnt spawn or anything. She did everything herself and never hit any HP lower than 60%.

Comment by ironwerks

Ok after 3 attempts she always runs up the hill and stands there changing from humanoid to bear and back over and over while chanting "Attack me if you will, but you won't stop me from getting back to Quae" over and over nonstop and after i FINALLY walk away the quest fails.

Comment by Chinster

My friend and I did this quest today. As mentioned above the courier and his guards were at the end house.

I'm not kidding when I say they are on a 10 second respawn timer. Hardly enough time to grab a bite and a drink. We must have fought 8 or 9 full respawns before Kinelroy managed to get far enough away for us not to aggro the respawns. We were also getting added mobs engaging us at the same time.

When I say that it was completely insane I'm not even slightly joking. However, the XP we got was superb and it was one of the most epic fights I've ever had, so in that respect it was made of glorious win.

Just don't try to do this one alone, don't say I didn't warn you because if that courier and his guards are at the end house you are toast!

This is a must do quest though and is now one of my favourites as we were simply 'WTF' the whole time at the end, we so thought we were going to die :)

Comment by Gnomesown

When i did this quest the first few times, an undead warlock about 7 levels higher then me kept killing and camping me. Luckily, a level 70 guilmate was in Refuge Pointe to teach this guy thing or two about camping lower level players. ;)

Comment by Mydge

Did this alone as a 42 arms warrior.

Funniest quest ive done in a while. 10 second respawn rate on the courier meant we went thought 8 or 9 sets of them before she finished whatever she was doing.

But at 42, the mobs are an easy kill and it was more fun than anything.

And, she can definitely hold her own plus she heals you! Bless her cotton socks :)

Comment by natari

I, a lvl 33 mage soloed this quest.

I tried to get 2-3 mobs at a time, and using AoE spells killing them all at once. When you get out of mana, just use your want and let Kinelory tank.

Remember to drink whenever you have the chance, which is not that often.

Kinelory will also cast an occasional rejuvenation on you, so your hp should be fine even though you can´t eat as much as you want to.

~Natari

Comment by KaleJ

Good for a 34 discipline/holy priest too. Just keep your mana up, yourself shielded/healed and Kinelory renewed if you have to.

If you find yourself running low on mana and outnumbered, cast psychic scream to buy yourself some time and a drink.

ETA: Solo, I mean.

Comment by malystryx

It's worth noting that this quest now seems to be FIXED, i.e. the Forsaken Courier & co. respawn and proceed on their route normally. No more stationary Courier + 10 second respawn timer!

I've done this on two toons recently, and in both cases the quest was working as intended. The Courier and his bodyguards were not a stationary respawn out front of the house, and Kinelory did not disappear at any point during the escort process.

Comment by siderisanon

I just completed the quest. The courier did not respawn in the house. However, I had given her time to get her and her bodyguards up the road so that may have helped.

I had no problems with Kinelory disappearing.

This is the easiest escort quest I've done so far. Kinelory could probably have done the who thing without me.

Comment by alison974

i came back to do this quest for some reputation. A level 49 shadow priest and with the immediate respawns of the forsaken i couldn't complete it. No honor meant no spirit tap, meant no mana rejuvenation. And my wand is pretty useless as I've been constantly questing with a partner. So i gave up, i think I must've killed about half a dozen sets of the forsakens, we made it out of the house but then she had all of them plus the farmers or whatever and i had to heal, by the time i got back to her, she had died i think, i dunno, but i failed. Might need some practice I spose, but this quest is terrible!

Comment by Squiggz

Easily solo'd as a level 34 holy pally, I just let her tank most of it in bear form, and I just chilled out in the background. Only part that I almost got raped at was before the house were you fight the warlock/undead thing, get ambushed by like 5 guys. Only hard because you've just been attacked by like 3 other mobs.

Comment by Jerney

This quest actually gives 250 Stormwind rep

Comment by Assamun

As of April 3, 2009 the respawn timer has not been fixed, i spent a good 10 minutes fighting the endless respawns of the courier and the bodyguard before giving up and dropping the quest.

Comment by StephenDeken

I did this at level 40, and had the same problem with the endless courier respawns. Wasn't a problem in terms of being able to survive for me, but it was extremely annoying anyway. I finally realized that all of the mobs were initially aggroing on me instead of Kinelory, so I moved out of the house to fight them, and then just before downing the courier I ran a little farther away. I think it took two waves or so to get clear; Kinelory runs pretty fast once she's done, if she's not engaged in a fight.

So, to summarize:

This quest is a lot easier if you make sure the courier and bodyguards are away from the house before you start.

If you are fighting off constantly respawning couriers and bodyguards after Kinelory says she's done, start moving away from the house while you're fighting. You'll eventually get out of the aggro radius of the new spawns, or at least far enough away that Kinelory won't engage them.

Comment by Androdne

Just confirmed that this quest is still bugged. I spent the last 30 min trying to complete this quest, but as soon as the courier is killed, she respawns with at least 1 or more bodyguards. Eventually I run out of mana and cannot continue to kill the endless respawns. Also, I confirmed that the courier did not leave to go on her run to Tarren Mill. I waited 15 minutes for the courier to leave and she did not.

Comment by Murky

The quest isn't actually bugged... There's a Plain Creeper that is bugged under the ground and Kinelory is constantly trying to kill it. So she just eventually disappears cause she can't move without killing everything in sight... Sigh, such a good quest too, Blizzard please fix it!

Comment by Qariz

Pretty easy quest, as kinelory has an imba ai. She heal you, and herself and she deals enough dmg in bearform... But when we got to the undead guy, and she pulled him, i was kinda Unlucky i got the undead guy plus 2 orcs and after that in the middle of the fight the patrolling guards and the courier spawned right outside. So i had to fight all of them. I managed to do so, cuz kinelory healed and tanked a bit. But when she searched for information the courier spawned again so i had to fight them again. I managed to get out before they spawned a 3rd time tho..

Comment by Velei

It's still buggy right now, I died 3 times and they undead just kept respawning like every time I killed *most* of them and only one or 2 were left, it took so long that the apothecary or whatever even responded. Had to have help on this quest.

Comment by Flarg

Fun quest, this and the courier kill quest before.

Solo'ed as Lvl 31 Rouge, first try.

Seems like the trick is to preempt pull when you can, otherwise let Kin tank any adds that come along. Several times I'd bandage, simply stall for cools this way. Even ran out of bandages and busted out a few while Kin did her thing! : P

Comment by peanutpants

One thing you'll find yourself wondering upon completion of this quest:Why didn't we go that way to BEGIN with!

Comment by jaktuga

Soloed as a lvl 36 warrior, it was a nightmare! The orcs part was easy but the 5 undeads you kill in the quest before were respawning all the time! I died 2 times and there was like 50 corpses of them until the druid start runing away.

I think blizzard could have made another place for their spawning...

Comment by Relius

This quest does no longer seem to be bugged. The enemies seem to respawn really fast here though so it's hard to clear a path for her before you start. Her aggro range is a lot smaller then yours unless your level 38 and she will only attack on target when a group is pulled.

Comment by Hailding

This quest is almost impossible if the Forsaken Courier + Bodyguards are bugg respawning all the time. Me and Kinelory made it to the farm house, just to realise that a pack of undead where there. Ofcourse we killed them, but they just kept respawning and respawning. We made it into the house, took out the apothecary and killed a bunch of undead. When she made her "break" she ran into a pack of orcs, and the undead was not late to join. We almost killed everyone of them, as a rogue it was easy to one shot the undead with ambush. But then the orcs took her out, and the undead respawned and went after me. I Vanished, and ran away, sworn my life to be killing mean undead who don't know that they should not respawn on a 5 sec timer...

Anyway, we managed to kill more than 50 undead and some orcs (thanks to her HoT's) but this quest needs to be fixed.

*Edit* First post!

Comment by Kimoshi

Maybe it was just me, but the Forsaken Courier/Bodyguards were bugged. I had to kill all of them 7 or 8 times before I was finally able to get out of the house and turn in the quest.

Just a word of warning.

Comment by bigpoppa

I'd say this quest is a gear / skill check. Iam a 36 lock and i managed this quest. But Drain life, Sacrifice and life tap was the most used spell throughout this battle. I got lvling shoulders,chest and staff (all with the best enchants except shoulder ofc) so i think those bonuses helped out abit.

Had to kill the couriers 7 or 8 times.And i died once, the peons in the area come as a plus so it was 5-7 mobs at all time. But suddenly she started to run off so i managed it :)

But i love a challenge so this quest was pretty fun. Remember that Kinelory got enough HP/armor so you rather want to focus on yourself and the mobs instead of her (if you are a healer)

Comment by hunpha

I got a bug here, Kinelory didn't move at all after accepting the quest.can anyone help me?

Comment by Vidman357

As of tonight, at 2 AM, I'd fought in that house for a good twenty minutes on my 34 rogue.. The courier has been bugged all night, never left the house to patrol down the road. So, after 10 minutes of constant fighting, getting the occasional heal from the druid, I finally stopped to loot bodies. That took about 2 minutes, getting through all the bodies. Then I jumped back in for the umpteenth wave of courier/bodyguard spawns, popped Blade Flurry and beat 'em down quick. As soon as they died, I vanished, to drop my threat...and the druid moved just far enough to be in the middle of 'em when they respawned...again. Good news though, we managed to pull the Arcanist inside, which set the druid to go inside. Repeat killing spree for the next 5 minutes inside--Gained a level! popped the Flurry again, and beat 'em down, vanishing once more. Druid got what she was looking for, and beat feet. Of course, I was trying to loot the mound of bodies...when they spawned on me again. Screw that, sprint, evasion, and run like hell! Vanished when I got close enough to her to make her turn and look at the mobs chasing me; they reset and we kept running. Hell of an experience gain with the ribbon dance and heirloom gear. Fun, if irritating.

Comment by kirzan

As of 3.3.5, it's probably not consistent, but towards the end when she "breaks through" she actually aggroed a spider that was out-of-world. She just stands there spamming her aggro line targeting the spider. I managed to aggro the spider myself but you can't cast spells, and thorns won't kill it. It's evade bugged so you just can't do anything except for restarting and hope she doesn't aggro the stupid spider again.

Edit: If this happens to you, here's what I did: From Kinelory, the spider was more towards the plains and I'm guessing I aggroed it the first time. Just walk really close to the farm. Just did it, she didn't aggro the spider and now I'm too annoyed to even check if it's there. Have fun and pull through, this is free XP.

Comment by randomnamn

I got so mad at this quest seriously, when i got to the house after 10 minutes it was stupid bodyguards that just respawned respawned all the time! it was impossible!

Comment by RyokoLam

Just did this, and the courier are respawning like every 10 secs still whilst I was there. Kinelory was constantly being interrupting from the quest in the hut by the constant respawning of the courier bodyguards.....had to try and find a moment when the courier could be wiped out simulatenenously before kinelory could get on with it!

Comment by kirztz

I had a Problem with this quest, Every time Kinelory stopped or i killed something, she would return to original position on the bank for about 1min them suddenly appear some where else on the farm on her set walking path. I had to abandon and restart the quest after i waited for her to respawn
